Researchers derive first ever molecular model of critical blood-brain barrier transporter.
Presently, there are limitations to drug delivery to the brain as it is tightly protected by the blood-brain barrier. The blood-brain barrier is a protective barrier which separates the circulating blood from the central nervous system which can prevent the entry of certain toxins and drugs to the brain. This restricts the treatment of many brain diseases. Now, researchers from Duke-NUS Medical School (Duke-NUS) have … Continue reading Researchers derive first ever molecular model of critical blood-brain barrier transporter.
